along the Ōi River
begins the story of Kawane 川根
01 / 06
Tea plants are covered with mesh for three to four weeks before harvest to block sunlight, boost chlorophyll (encourage a richer green colour), and increase sweet amino acids (deeper umami profile).
02 / 06
Only the youngest, softest topmost leaves and a bud are hand-picked or machine-harvested by skilled farmers during the spring flush.
03 / 06
Fresh leaves are steamed for 15 to 40 seconds at ~100°C right after picking to soften the leaves, stop oxidation and lock in the vibrant green colours.
04 / 06
Steamed leaves are cooled by wind over 2 to 3 cycles, then dried, to prevent mold and stabilise the tea.
05 / 06
The dried tea leaves are then sorted, separating stems and leaves via airflow and sifting, resulting in pure leaf material known as tencha.
06 / 06
The tencha leaves are fed into traditional granite stone mills that rotate slowly to grind the material into an ultra-fine powder without generating heat.
